Welcome to the Nexus, Ben.
I admit I'm jealous you were able to make it to the conference and see the Nexus presentation as well. Glad to see it was inspiring for you! The open nature of the forum is great. I love the various backgrounds and perspectives that are shared here, it allows for some great discussions. Hope to have some future discussions with you.
If you havent seen them already the Wiki and FAQ (top right corner) are huge resources created by some members and give a great overview of everything DMT.
Have you had any experiences with DMT before? Interested or performing any extraction teks? What sparked your interest in psychedelics and DMT?
Im interested in hearing a bit more about your background if you would like to share.
How do you feel an open internet could help promote responsible, safe, intelligent use of psychedelics? Personally I think you have a great point with that. The Nexus is a fine example that I'm incredibly grateful for. It stresses harm reduction, intelligent usage, safe/sustainable personal extractions, and promotes the spread & expansion of facts (and mind boggling theories) which are things I wish I were exposed to in my teens. Back then I knew only of the skewed/exaggerated facts on both ends of the spectrum, drug war vs dealers. Can't say I would have utilized as I do today, but I think exposure to this attitude would have been very positive for me.
Welcome!
Over and out fellow earthling. Peace be with you.
The inner soul is full of joy. Reveal my secrets and sew me whole. With each day, "I" heeds your call.
You may not care the slightest and may not be the brightest, but from here "I" sees you're mighty for you created it all.
And the jumbling sea rose above the wall.
Through this chaos comes the order you enthrall.
